The Douglas Cultural Council strives to serve all members of the community - from early childhood to senior citizen - by bringing the arts. culture, and social sciences directly to the town, so that they may experience it firsthand. We hope that by planting the seeds of arts and culture, our town will grow in an appreciation of culture, and will help foster unity amongst all citizens. Of particular interest to Douglas residents, according to our interest surveys, is music - particularly live music, to be played on the Old Town Common during the summer. We are looking to expand our Summer Family Concert Series. Any musicians or bands (or other performance artists) are urged to apply to our LCC. See our Council Priorities for specifics when applying.
